An acceptable use agreement is well, somthing that definines what use of somthing is acceptable. In terms of NoCatAuth and free community wireless networks, this is a cover our butts move, so that the standard issue threat to the internet script kiddies, and purveyors of kiddie porn don't use our connections, get busted, and get US busted.

Just what is allowed, what isn't. NoCatAuth makes sure they have to know this, before they can use the connection (it does other stuff to, but just as it pertains to this topic of course). |
An AcceptableUseAgreement is a statement by a service provider about what constitutes acceptable use of the service. Typically users must accept the AUP in order to use the service. Some service providers have more liberal freedom-respecting AUP's than others. Comcast is an example of a service provider with a particularly freedom-hating AUP. We recommend avoiding them when at all possible. Generally speaking, local ISPs have more freedom-respecting AUPs than behemoth national ISPs.. |
